I dont think the dreamcast came out at the wrong time I just think the fact it failed profit wise was because you could burn games onto a cd and play it without the need for chipping. I love the DC and everything about it, best range of games and you could get Linux on it I modded mine with a VGA port so I can play it with a monitor, I used to use it for internet access as well. I have been playing a lot of Sword of the Berserk recently, man I love that game Also like that games are still being devopled for it and homebrew titles from indie producers as well. The Dreamcast still loves on. I hope that Sega develops a new dreamcast for the next gene.
